Lewis and Clark Discovery Expedition


The official reenactors for the waterway portion of the national Lewis and Clark bicentennial commemoration passed through our community this week-end. They have canoed east from Fort Clatsop at the mouth of the mighty Columbia River to their camp at the confluence of the Snake and Columbia Rivers. The next portion of their journey takes them on horseback and foot to the Bitterroot Mountain range in Montana. Well researched and in authentic costume, they mingle and teach the history of the famous journey of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark as they explored the continent of North American from sea to shining sea.
